1. What services are offered to NYU@NUS students, and how do I start my search?
NYU@NUS students have access to the full range of services offered by the Office of Career Services, including workshops and panels, networking events, interview programs, and one-on-one counseling. While some events will be organized on campus in Singapore, others will be videotaped and available via webstream on the OCS website. Please see the Career Curriculum for NYU@NUS students for further information about OCS services and job search timing.
2. How do I contact the office of Career Services?
One on one career counseling appointments are available to NYU@NUS students via phone and video-chat. Additional counseling is also available via email, when appropriate. You will receive information about scheduling appointments in the Job Search Workshop scheduled in May. We can always be contacted via email at email@example.com.
3. Where do graduates of the Singapore Program work?
Graduates from the NYU School of Law Singapore Programme pursue a variety of career paths, including employment in prominent local and international law firms in Singapore and other major legal centers such as Shanghai, Dubai, and London. Others have gone on to serve in government or join an NGO, or pursue further studies in doctoral programs. Some have chosen to secure an internship after completion of their studies in multi-lateral organizations such as the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and the World Trade Organization, or at the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia. Students are supported in their job search by the Office of Career Services (OCS) and the Public Interest Law Center (PILC) at NYU School of Law. Both offices provide access to individual career counseling, resume advice, interview training, and networking opportunities.
4. How do students in the graduate division obtain jobs?
Students obtain employment in a variety of ways including: individual mailings, networking, the Asia Job Fair, NYU School of Law's job listings, and referrals. The most frequently reported source of employment (i.e., the way in which a student initially learned of or made contact with the employer) is through individualized mailings, networking, or other self-initiated contact with the employer. Many students also receive interview opportunities through the Asia Job Fair, or contact employers through another OCS or PILC program.
Throughout the year, the Office of Career Services provides career planning seminars, individual counseling, and workshops on all aspects of the job search. The success of a student's efforts strongly correlates to his or her LL.M. academic performance, utilization of resources available through the OCS, and traditional job-search activities outside of the OCS office. There is no specific or foolproof means for obtaining a position; the approaches vary and should reflect each student's individual ambitions and qualifications. The OCS works with students to provide the tools for success in the legal market and determine a job search strategy that best suits each individual's needs.
5. When do LL.M. students obtain job offers?
The demand for graduate students is not seasonal and the OCS receives notices of job openings throughout the year. The job search will not be limited to the Summer, Fall or Spring seasons, but will involve year-round effort on the part of the student and may extend beyond the completion of the LL.M. program. A small percentage of students obtain their jobs in the first semester, however, many students obtain positions later in the academic year or after graduation.
6. How does academic performance impact job search success?
Academic performance in an LL.M. program is an integral component of hiring decisions and some employers will wait to view your NYU grades before making hiring decisions. The NYU@NUS degree alone will not get you a job. For the most part, major international law firms prefer grades above a B+ average. However, employers generally consider a number of factors in addition to your grades, including: prior legal work experience, academic record from your first law degree, business ties with your home country, admission to practice in a certain jurisdiction, interviewing skills, and perceived "fit" with the firm or office.
7. How many employers contact NYU School of Law for resumes from LL.M. candidates?
OCS receives requests for resumes from students with international backgrounds throughout the year. Additionally, a number of large international employers participate in our formal recruiting programs, like the Asia Job Fair and International Student Interview Program. Please contact the Office of Career Services at email@example.com for more detailed employer information.

Various artists, Son of Rogues Gallery
* * * (out of four)
Famously eclectic producer Hal Willner's follow-up to 2006's Rogue's Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs & Chanteys has a looser, more whimsical feel than its predecessor and boasts an even more diverse array of talent, including some intriguing combos: Shane McGowan with Johnny Depp and Gore Verbinski; Tim Robbins with Matthew Sweet and Susanna Hoffs; Angelica Huston with the Weisberg Strings.
The 36 tracks include some missteps, but there are also evocative numbers such as Beth Orton's cover of Bamboo (River Come Down) and Marc Almond's Ship in Distress.
Other artists put textural twists on the folky fare with inspired results such as Todd Rundgren's Rolling Down to Old Maui and Sally Racket, courtesy of Katey Red and Big Freedia with Akron/Family.

CMU Spring Football Spotlight: Offensive Line
Courtesy: John Regenfuss/CMU Athletics
Release: 03/27/2013
Gone are left tackle Eric Fisher, who is in play to be the No. 1 overall selection in April's NFL Draft, right guard Darren Keyton, and right tackle Mike Repovz, a group that combined to start 97 games during their college careers. While the void left by that trio's departure may seem sizeable, continuity will be provided by four players who have seen significant action up front for CMU.
Center Nick Beamish and left guard Andy Phillips started every game in 2012 were key parts of an offense that averaged 6.2 yards per play and produced nearly 400 total yards per game. Beamish anchored the middle of the line in his first collegiate season while Phillips has been in the starting line-up for 17 consecutive games dating back to his freshman season.
"(Nick's) leadership role is going to be more in his expertise and experience," said CMU offensive line coach Mike Cummings. "He did a good job for us, but I think he could be a much better player. That is what happens to a freshman when everything you see is for the first time and you have to adjust to it."
"I think Andy Phillips is really going to be a leader because he played the year before and then played all the games this past year. He knows what to do; he has great experience. He is tough and really enjoys football."
Manning the left tackle position will eventually be Jake Olson, who has 26 careers starts to his credit. Olson was the starter at right tackle in 2012 but suffered a season-ending injury early on. He is being held out of spring practice while he continues to rehab but is expected to be full go by this summer. At 6-8, 305 lbs., Olson has similar size and skill set to his predecessor at the position.
Slotted to start at right tackle is Kevin Henry. The junior started four games as a freshman and replaced Mike Repovz in the starting line-up in 2012 versus UMass, helping CMU post 42 points in the road victory. A versatile player, he is also an option to play at right guard.
"Kevin Henry is doing a great job," said Cummings. "He has improved so much this year. He had to start for us a couple of years ago and that may have been a little too soon for him but, nonetheless, that experience really helped him. Last year, he was a back up and we were able to put him in some games and never lost a step."
The right guard position is yet unsettled and there are several players vying for the starting spot; a battle that will likely continue through summer training camp. Senior Cody Pettit and redshirt freshman Connor Collins are candidates but others are being tried out for the position including Beamish and Ramadan Ahmeti.
The depth along the line is young but, thanks to tireless recruiting, is talent rich. Cummings singles out redshirt freshman Colin Goetz as an early standout in spring practice. In Olson's absence, he has been taking the first team snaps at left tackle.
"(Colin's) probably a little undersized right now, he's only 290 pounds, but he's got really good feet, good awareness, and he's really tough. He is picking things up. He's a freshman so there is a learning curve, but he's done a really good job. It helps that he is playing right next to Andy Phillips, who can help him out a little bit. That always helps with development, if you are working with someone with experience."
Other younger players have stepped to the forefront this spring, providing Cummings with a glimpse of a bright future for the CMU offensive line.
"Connor Collins is a very tough guy and is eager to learn. Dylan Anderson and Kevin D'Arcy are doing well. They may be behind the learning curve just a little bit. Nonetheless, they are very tough players who work extremely hard and will become great players for Central Michigan."
With a mix of veteran and inexperienced players to work with, Cummings is aiming to use the spring season to not only develop their talents but also find some answers regarding rotation and depth.
"As an offense, we know we need to do better in the red zone and on third down but, specifically as an offensive line, we have to get 10 guys that can go in, so we are be able to put two groups on the field that can execute the offense. Similarly, we need to be able to put one group on the field and whoever is in that first group needs to know there is no drop off. We need to work on that, but I think we are making progress."

The first Saturday of Speed Weeks was good for Martinsville Speedway President Clay Campbell and Kevin Harvick in the Sprint Unlimited. It all made for an exciting day of racing at the Daytona International Speedway.
Clay Campbell got a pre-race pep talk from Cup Series driver and former Daytona ARCA champ Ryan Newman and then stepped into history as part of the 50th year of ARCA racing at Daytona.
Clay started 24th and was biding his time at lap 20 when he got caught up in someone else's mess, saving the car near the start finish line but having to pit for repairs.
"I kind of saw that coming," Campbell said. "They were up there three abreast and a lot of movement going on. I was anticipating it but that didn't have anything to do with me missing it. But once it happened, it was just sheer luck that I just kept going low and low and missed most of it. The only problem we had was going through the grass which messed the valence up. But the guys did a great job fixing it up when we brought it back in."
"God liked Clay Campbell today," said Jeff Spraker, Clay's car owner and Crew Chief, "because we lucked out there. God was watching out for us. The guys bounced back good because we had a little damage in the front and that set us back in track position but it gave us the fuel to be able to go the end"
Clay picked his way through the field bringing home the #08 Ford in the 14th position, a solid Daytona debut on the high banks.
"I am ecstatic," Campbell said. "These guys gave me a great opportunity—Jeff Spraker and the whole bunch with Mountain Dew on the car. It was a good run for them. My buddies at Ferrum College got home in one piece. I don't think Ferrum College got touched on the quarter panel, so it was just a great weekend. Among the things I've done outside of what a regular guy like me would be doing, driving at Daytona and finishing 14th my first time here, I couldn't be happier."
"He stays pretty jonesed-up about these speedway races," Spraker said. "I think we have got a guy that had he been about 15 years younger, the guys over in the next garage were going to have to worry."
Nineteen of Nascar's Cup stars came out under the lights for the Sprint Unlimited but the real star was the car, the new look Gen 6 machine, getting its first racing action on the track.
A big wreck took out 7 of the 19 cars early, paving the way for Kevin Harvick to get out front in the final segment and hold off Greg Biffle and Joey Logano for his third win in the race now known as the Sprint Unlimited.
"I saw them coming with a head of steam," said Harvick, "and tried to put myself right in the way of that particular car and hoped for the best. Starting at the back and being able to work your way through some traffic and feel how the car is going to react was a good thing. It reminded me of how we used to race 10 or 11 years ago. That kind of drafting.
Harvick begins his final season at Richard Childress Racing with a bang and now is bidding to become the first driver to win this race and the Daytona 500 since Dale Jarrett back in 2000.

The state of the 4-year-oldsFebruary 15,2013One of the big moments of the State of the Union address was President Barack Obamas call for high-quality preschool for 4-year-olds.
Nobody was happier at the idea than Walter Mondale, the former vice president.
This is going to be wonderful, he said in a phone conversation. His delight was sort of inspiring. If I had been down the road Mondale has traveled, my mood would have been a little darker.
In 1971, when he was a senator, Mondale led the congressional drive to make quality preschool education available to every family in the United States that wanted it. Everybody. The federal government would set standards and provide backup services like meals and medical and dental checkups. Tuition would depend on the familys ability to pay.
And it passed! Then Richard Nixon vetoed it, claiming Congress was proposing communal approaches to child rearing. Now, 42 years later, working parents of every economic level scramble madly to find quality programs for their preschoolers, while the waiting lines for poor families looking for subsidized programs stretch on into infinity.
And Obama is trying, against great odds, to do something for 4-year-olds.
People, think about this for a minute. We have no bigger crisis as a nation than the class barrier. Were near the bottom of the industrialized world when it comes to upward mobility. A child born to poor parents has a pathetic chance of growing up to be anything but poor. This isnt the way things were supposed to be in the United States. But here we are.
Would it be different if all the children born over the past 40 years had been given access to top-quality early education programs that not only kept them safe while their parents worked but gave them the language and reasoning skills that wealthy families pass on as a matter of course?
Well never know.
Mondales Comprehensive Child Development Act was a bipartisan bill, which passed 63-17 in the Senate. It was an entitlement, and, if it had become law, it would have been one entitlement for little children in a world where most of the money goes to the elderly.
We came up with a lot of proposals, but the one we were most excited about was early childhood education. Everything we learned firmed up the view this really works, Mondale said.
The destruction of his bill was one of the earliest victories of the new right.
The federal government should not be in the business of raising Americas children. It was a political and ideological ideal of great importance, Pat Buchanan once told me.
He was working at the White House when the bill reached Nixons desk, and he helped write the veto message. He spoke about this achievement with great pride.
The saga of the demise of the Comprehensive Child Development Act is an excellent explanation of why Obama was prepared to go through so much political trauma to pass health care reform, even when many of his own party members were begging him to drop back, do something less earth-shaking and wait for a better moment.
The better moment might never come.
After Gerald Ford became president, the early childhood education bills supporters tried to resurrect the plan. They had hardly done anything besides agree that they probably ought to wait until after the 1976 election, when they were hit with a political tsunami. Members of Congress started getting hundreds and hundreds sometimes thousands and thousands of hysterical letters accusing them of plotting to destroy the American family.
This was before constituent email, when that kind of outpouring was shocking, particularly since a number of the writers seemed to believe that Congress was plotting to allow children to organize labor unions and sue their parents for making them do chores.
That was really the beginning of the Tea Party. The right wing started to turn on this thing viciously, Mondale said. They said it was a socialist scheme. They were really pounding the members of Congress, and a lot of people got cold feet.
Nobody really knew where it was all coming from. A reporter for The Houston Chronicle traced the hysteria back to a man in Kansas who had written the leaflet, based on information hed received from a revival in Missouri, which he told the reporter he had since learned was almost all completely wrong.
But that was it. Later, people would begin proposing modest preschool programs, particularly for the offspring of poor women who were required to work after the repeal of welfare entitlements in the Clinton years. But there would never again be a serious attempt to guarantee all American families access to quality early education and after-school programs.
The president proposes doing something for 4-year-olds. This is a great idea. Mondale is certainly enthusiastic. But still.

Billy Strange
Billy Strange co-wrote several songs for Elvis Presley with Mac Davis, including A Little Less Conversation for the movie Live A Little, Live A Little, which, while only a minor success on release in 1968, became a worldwide hit after it was heard in the 2001 film 'Ocean's 11' and then remixed by Junkie XL's for Nike and public demand made it an obvious choice for a single release which went number one worldwide in 2002.
Other notable Elvis Presley songs co-written by Billy Strange and Mac Davis are, Memories and Nothingville from Elvis' '68 Comeback Special, Clean Up Your Own Back Yard [The Trouble With Girls] and Charro! [Charro!] all written in 1968. Billy first played guitar on the soundtrack for Elvis' movie, it Happened At The Worlds Fair then on Viva Las Vegas and Roustabout. He received music director credits for Elvis' movies, Live A Little, Live A Little and The Trouble With Girls. Elvis asked Steve Binder to hire Billy as musical director for 'Elvis' known today as the'68 Comeback Special, however he was replaced by Billy Goldenberg.
Billy Stange and Elvis Presley : 'Elvis', The '68 Comeback Special.
Strange collaborated with renowned singer Nancy Sinatra for her 1967 James Bond theme You Only Live Twice and also arranged music for Somethin' Stupid - a duet with her father Frank Sinatra. One of his most famous and captivating performances is on Nancy Sinatra's version of Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down). The tremolo-heavy arrangement of the song had been critically acclaimed, but it wasn't until the song featured in 'Kill Bill' that it became world-famous. He had maintained a long working relationship with Sinatra, including arrangements on her hit These Boots Were Made for Walking. Nancy Sinatra who was heartbroken after learning about the death of her longtime collaborator posted on social networking site, 'My dear friend, the legendary guitarist/arranger Billy Strange passed away this morning in Nashville. My heart is shattered'.
The Rockabilly Hall of Fame and Musicians Hall of Fame inductee also collaborated with other rock legends like Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr., Willie Nelson, Beach boys and Nat King Cole.

Rabbi Yehudah Zev Segal was a legend in his lifetime. During his last decade and a half particularly, Rabbi Segals influence spread far beyond his native England to Jewish communities all across the world.
As an eminent Torah scholar and revered tzaddik, Rabbi Segal was sought out everywhere for his counsel, blessings and prayers. His warmth, concern and genuine love for every Jew imbued his petitioners with a feeling that mere words cannot convey. He was a primary force in the worldwide awakening toward study of the Chofetz Chaims classic code on the laws of lashon hara (forbidden speech).
It is against this backdrop that Rabbi Segals shmuessen (ethical discourses) have had so great an impact. His words are down-to-earth, powerful and uplifting; they inspire the reader toward spiritual striving, and make him confident that he can succeed. Rabbi Segals discourses convey a sense of who he was a spiritual giant who keenly understood human nature, and who utilized his vast Torah knowledge to help others develop their strengths and overcome their weaknesses.
The first volume of Inspiration and Insight, discourses on the weekly parashah, was published in 1990 to popular acclaim. This long-awaited second volume, translated and arranged by Rabbi Shimon Finkelman, further preserves the memory and teachings of this great Torah personality, who passed away suddenly on 22 Shevat, 5753/1993. The book contains discourses on the yomim tovim, teshuvah, general ethical themes, and moving eulogies of recent Torah luminaries. In total, it is a priceless word portrait of the ethical world of the Jew.

When you need to drive in a nail, nothing beats a hammer. There's even a convenient claw on the other end to correct any mishaps. But when you need to drive a lot of nails in a short amount of time, nothing beats a power nailer. A quality power nailer can sink thousands of nails a day consistently and accurately with a minimum amount of maintenance.
Two basic types of nail guns are widely used today. They vary based on their magazine style and the nails they use.
Stick-style nail guns use nails that are collated, or held together, by strips of paper, plastic or thin wire. These nails form a long, slender stick that slides into an oblong magazine on the tool. Nail sticks vary in length from 20-inch to 40-inch nails.
Coil-style nail guns use long, flexible strings of nails joined with wires. The nails are stored in a round magazine on the tool. The magazine rolls the string of nails, allowing as many as 300 nails to be loaded at a time.
Nail guns can be used in virtually any type of construction. Some models are designed for use in tight spaces, while others are large and powerful for high-volume applications.
The most common power nail guns are pneumatic nailers. These are powered by air pressure from a small compressor. When a nail is fired, a valve opens in the tool and air fills a cylinder. A piston in the cylinder moves rapidly downward, driving the nail in front of it into the material at the tip of the nailer. When the piston fully extends, the air from the compressor is released from the tool through an exhaust vent. The piston recoils while another nail is loaded.
Pneumatic nail guns require a constant source of compressed air. While no nail gun requires a specific compressor, each has specific air requirements. Nail guns operate between a range of pressures measured in pounds per square inch (psi). In addition to pressure, nail guns require a minimum volume of air for correct operation. This volume is rated in cubic feet per minute (cfm). Any restriction in the air hose will decrease the air pressure and volume. Hoses that are the wrong size, too long or contain a lot of moisture will decrease airflow, and cause premature wear and poor performance.
The psi and cfm ratings of your air compressor should be at least equal to or greater than the requirements of your nailer. If the compressor doesn't meet these requirements, the nail gun won't work correctly. Increasing the air pressure output of the compressor won't solve performance problems caused by low air volume.
While the basic function of a cordless nail gun is similar to that of a pneumatic nailer, the power source of a cordless nail gun is unique. Instead of using a supply of compressed air provided by a compressor, these nail guns use flammable gas to drive nails. The gas is drained from a disposable canister and injected into the combustion chamber above the piston. An electric charge from a battery ignites the gas, which explodes and drives the piston, dispensing a nail. The tool and power source are self-contained, so no cords or hoses are necessary.
The most modern cordless nail guns sink nails as quickly as the pneumatic models. They need to be cleaned more often than traditional pneumatic units but require very little startup time. They're well-suited for tight or obstructed areas, since there's no air hose. A cordless nail gun works best for lower-volume nailing, jobs in tight spaces or jobs with limited setup time.
Choose the features, power and nail capacity appropriate for the desired use.
Nail firing types offer variety in the way a nailer drives the fasteners.
Directional exhaust plates allow the user to control where the tool's exhaust is channeled. This setting is valuable when nailing in a dusty area. Some shields require special tools for adjustment, while others can be adjusted by hand.
Jam clearing simplifies the maintenance of nailers, since fasteners occasionally jam in the nailing mechanism. Be sure the tool you select allows convenient clearing of jammed fasteners.
Adjustable depth allows the user to control the depth the fastener is driven into the nailing surface. Nailers can leave nails protruding, sink them flush or even countersink them depending on the depth setting. Some nailers require tools for depth adjustment, while others can be adjusted by hand.
Large triggers are easily used with gloved fingers and provide added comfort for the user.
Carrying cases protect the nailer from unnecessary damage and wear during transport. Consider adding a case when you purchase your nailer to keep it clean, dry and well-protected.
Swiveling air connectors cut down on air hose tangles. They also make reloading easier, allowing the air hose to be moved out of the way.
Protective guards keep parts of the tool safe from damage and protect the user from flying debris. Guards can wear out with use, so look for ones that can be easily replaced.
Easy-to-load nail magazines make loading nails a simple process. Make sure you can reload the nailer quickly and easily.
Nail size adjustment is important, since you may need to change nail sizes several times a day as you switch tasks. Nail size should adjust easily with few tools.
Nails used in power nailers are joined together with paper, plastic or wire. Many have clipped heads that allow the nails to sit closely together in a solid line. Others are secured together in long strands with flexible wire. Most have a layer of lubricant / adhesive. As the nail contacts the nailing surface, the compound heats and lubricates the nail. When the compound cools, it bonds the nail to the nailing surface, increasing the holding strength.
Each power nailer has specific requirements for nail styles. Never use nails that aren't approved for your power nailer. Though the nails must be specially packaged for power nailers, their composition and applications are the same as traditional nails. Make sure the nails you use in your power nailer comply with all necessary regulations and building codes.
All power tools demand attention to safety, and power nailers are certainly no exception.

An electric tank is better insulated than a gas one (since it needs a flue up the middle). A good one will keep the cold in nearly as well as keeping the heat in. You may not see that much of a temperature rise.
We're considering buying a cheap electric hot water heater and NOT turning it on. It would just to act as a 60 gallon holding tank for incoming water.
In winter, the water temperature of our incoming line is about 3'C/37'F. We thought if that water could sit overnight (even in an unheated tank), it would gradually come up to room temperature (or thereabouts). The other active hot water tank would draw from this holding tank so it would only need to raise the temperature about half what it usually would.
I know the house will ultimately be heating this unit, but it seems like the house would be an order of magnitude more efficient at raising the temperature than a hot water heater would.
Is there a flaw in this logic?

What you want is a tempering tank which, installed ahead of the water heater, will do what you want assuming you install it in a space where the ambient temps are high enough.
You want an uninsulated tank, not an insulated tank like a water heater. Installing the tempering tank and the water heater in a conditioned space will yield the best results.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for that feedback. (Very glad it's of the "it would be better if" variety and not "you can't because".)
I was going with an electric only because it seemed like the cheapest way to get a tank. I was hoping by getting a cheap model I'd also get poor insulation.
I figured it probably wouldn't be too hard to remove the insulation from the tank if I needed to, though I've been warned I'll then have more problems with rust and have to collect/dispose of the condensation on the tank.
A PVC tank would probably work well as it wouldn't be affected by the condensation. If anyone can recommend an inexpensive tempering tank that would be great! (The 60 Gal. Electric I'm looking at is $CD 300.)
Try calling it a water storage tank instead of a tempering tank and you'll probably find something that'll work for you, possibly for less money.

I picked up a tank for free off Craigslist
They changed from electric to gas
I just need to strip off the outer shell

I have enough to do to my own house
If you use a decent amount of hot water, especially for showering, I'd consider a drain heat recovery unit. I have one and it makes a noticeable difference.
These days the tank insulation is urea foam and getting it all off the tank is a major undertaking, even for the cheap ones.
More efficient? A very squishy "maybe", but don't count on it.
An order of magnitude more efficient? NEVER! (At least not on an annual basis in heating-dominated Toronto!)
An electric HW heater & electric-resistance heating- no gain except in summer (but quicker recovery on the tank.)
A gas hot water heater v.s. 80% AFUE hot air heating system (assuming the furnace was properly sized), could be same story, but maybe not:
Gas hot water heaters have very high standby losses (primarily from flue-convection, but also from the insulation gap at the burner. As a result, the net efficiency is largely dependent on the volume of hot water used. The US Efficiency Factor (EF) is based on ~60gallons/day of use. If you use more than that you'll beat the EF number, if you use less than that you'll fall short- it's as simple as that. At 25 gallons/day a gas-fired tank with an EF of 0.65 will be under 50% efficent.
But AFUE is also a very squishy test, based on a ~30% duty cycle, and doesn't measure serious system-issues like duct leakage & insulation, duct balancing, etc. Most "typical" hot air systems run fully 15% or more below their AFUE as a system, and it's the system that will be heating your tempering tank. If you're a average or high-volume user with an 80% AFUE (properly sized, so that the ~30% duty cycle test even has some validity) with you'll roughly break even on the tempering tank.
If it's a well balanced properly sized 95% condensing furnace, you'll beat the standard gas-fired tank efficiency tempering tank somewhat, but you haven't changed the standby losses of the tank-heater, only lowered the duty cycle of the burner a bit.
If it's a forced hot water heating system you have some of the same issues, but the distribution losses tend to be much lower than forced hot air, so only take 5% off the AFUE number assuming it's correctly sized, which means you'll beat it. But it probably isn't- 100-300% oversizing is frightfully common, and if it's 300% oversized you'll just break even with the tank efficiency.
But if you have forced hot water with an AFUE greater than 80% (even if oversized) the greenest thing you can do is install an indirect-fired HW tank heater running off the boiler- preferably a reverse-indirect plumbed as a buffer tank for the heating system (eg. ThermoMax, ErgoMax), which will raise the net efficiency of the heating system as a whole (with very SIGNIFICANT gains on an oversized boiler system, pulling it back up the efficiency cliff it had fallen over) and heat your water at the same system-efficiency, beating a self-standing tank every time. During the summer season it's efficiency will fall to about what a 60gallon/day tank heater would be, but not much lower than that. But the gains in system efficiency to the heating system more than make up for any slightly lower summertime HW heating performance.
Thanks for the "water storage tank" tip, Sam. That seems to be much more on target. I haven't seen any with the correct in/out lines, but I'll keep looking.
Does anyone know if that would cause a problem for the water pressure out of the water storage tank? (I've heard that a pipe that, say, goes from 1/2" to 3/4" and back to 1/2" doesn't have the same pressure. If that's true, what effect does a tank have?)
Just to clarify: the goal is to find a way to get incoming water to *slowly* come up to room temperature over time (8 hours or so) so the hot water heater (combo unit for radiant floors & domestic hot water) doesn't have to work as hard.
My original plan was just to run a 200' coil of 1/2" copper line (~25 gal.) before the hot water heater. That would sweat a lot, of course but it shouldn't be too hard to drain it. The "unheated hot water heater" option just seemed like a cleaner solution, but perhaps not.
Problem here is the incoming water can be down close to 32 in the winter. So the water heater is trying to heat water from that temp to close to 140. That's a 100 degree change. If the tempering tanks sits overnite then the water should be around 57-63 - cellar temp. And actually the utility room stays warmer then the rest of the basement
DIY Handyman (not 4 hire)
I have enough to do to my own house
Not work as hard? Are you saying that the burner just can't keep up with both a hot water load and a heating load at the same time, at the incoming water temps you experience?
Is the combi unit a tank, or set up using a tankless?
If tankless:
It'll take a bit of system design to get there, and it won't be super cheap, but the "right" solution is to use a reverse-indirect as the heat exchanger for the DHW, turning the indirect into the hydraulic separator for the primary/secondary on the heating system:
Set the aquastat to whatever temp the radiant needs (or if it's a low-temp slab, set it to 135-150F and use mixing valves on the heating end.) Set the flow & delta-T on the tankless/boiler such that it can deliver design-day heat at normal radiation returns. (Go with the lowest flow on the primary that will reliably get the tankless to fire, and program the output temp to whatever it needs to be to deliver the BTUs. Unless the place is huge you won't need more than 2-3gpm or output temps more than 180F.
Then, when the cold water comes into the heat exchanger coils at the bottom of the tank, the return water in the primary loop will drop and the tankless will modulate the fire up to keep the output at the programmed temp. With 25-50gallons of buffered heating system water to draw from, even if the burner can't keep up with continuous load it'll go awhile before the DHW output temps drop to the uncomfortable range, and the recovery period will be very quick. With the indirect acting as a buffer in the system it'll lengthen the burns to reduce cycling losses as well.
It's a lot more money than 200' of copper pipe or a surplus tank, I know, but it works, and will improve the efficiency of the heating system. And if you're not comfortable with re-designing the heating system at this level, don't go there without professional assistance.

Report: Gears of War Movie Scaled Back; Budget Cutby Brian Leahy, Apr 06, 2010 12:00pm PDT
The LA Times is reporting that the Gears of War movie, based on the hit game from Epic and Microsoft, is being scaled back in both scope and budget.
Citing sources within New Line, the LA Times says that work on the project "has really slowed down." The director, Lee Wiseman ("Live Free or Die Hard", "Underworld"), is also moving on to another project.
The studio has now cut the budget, going from a film that would have cost more than $100 million to one that will cost a good chunk less than that. It's also reined in the story, turning it into a more simple, straight-ahead invasion story instead of a sprawling epic.
Additionally, sources claim that the project will need a new writer and possibly a new director if it ever comes to fruition. On the video game side of the coin, Epic's Cliff Bleszinksi is set to unveil a new game on Jimmy Fallon's show in two days, which is rumored to be Gears of War 3.

The Saints should pick him up late in the draft, or if undrafted, definitely sign him in free agency. Sean Payton would keep him in line & the Saints definitely need a speedy playmaker in the secondary, not to mention he is also good on special teams!
Honey Badger declares for NFL Draft: What are Tyrann Mathieu's prospects?
Next stop in the Honey Badger Express? The NFL Draft.
Former LSU defensive back Tyrann Mathieu announced Thursday that he will enter the 2013 NFL Draft. The decision came about four months after he was dismissed by the Tigers for failing multiple drug tests.
"I am sorry that I was not able to complete my journey at LSU, but I will always support LSU in any way I can," Mathieu said in a statement. "To my teammates, you are my brothers. You have kept me going. I will do my best to make you all proud of me."
Mathieu entered a drug rehab program following his fallout with the LSU football team, only to be arrested in October for marijuana possession. Now, Mathieu will be one of the more intriguing and contentious prospects in April's draft.
The last game that Mathieu played was the BCS national championship on Jan. 9, 2012, meaning that he'll have gone more than a year prior to the draft without competing. That, plus his off-field red flags, should be more than enough to give teams pause when considering him as a prospect.
Even without all of those issues, however, Mathieu's draft stock may have been uncertain. He won the 2011 Bednarik Award, handed out to college football's best defensive player, and was a Heisman finalist after a sophomore season in which he made huge play after huge play — Mathieu finished the 2011 campaign with 76 tackles, 11 interceptions, six forced fumbles, two defensive touchdowns and a pair of punt return touchdowns.
During his time with the Tigers, he was unquestionably one of the most electric players in college football. However, even then there were questions about how Mathieu's game would translate to the NFL.
At 5-foot-9 and 175 pounds, Mathieu lacks the prototypical size of an elite cornerback. Any team that selects him also may have to adjust its defensive playbook — Mathieu thrived at LSU, in part, because the coaching staff did not hesitate to use him all over the secondary. Mathieu even slid up as a linebacker to rush the quarterback at times.
That versatility could make Mathieu a home-run pick for a team willing to use him in such a way, but it could detract from those seeking a straight-up cover corner.
And as for those other factors …
Working in Mathieu's favor may be the recent success of other players with so-called "character issues." Though the Rams had to suspend Janoris Jenkins in Week 10 for a violation of team rules, he has put together a decent rookie season, highlighted by a two-pick-6 performance last week. Last year, the Ravens rolled the dice in the first round on Jimmy Smith, despite reports that he had failed multiple drug tests and been arrested for third-degree assault. Thus far, the Ravens have had no issues with Smith, aside from some inconsistent play.
The NFL world also received an introduction to Eagles rookie running back Bryce Brown last Monday. Brown was one of the most highly-touted recruits in the 2009 class, only to leave Tennessee after one season, and then bail on Kansas State as well after a report alleged that ex-Miami booster Nevin Shapiro had provided him with improper benefits.
Rather than try to pick up the pieces of his collegiate career, Brown entered the 2012 draft. He was not invited to the NFL combine, then slid all the way to pick 229, where he was plucked by the Eagles. His 178-yard, two-touchdown performance against the Panthers suddenly made that gamble by Philadelphia look like a brilliant one.
Could the Honey Badger fall into a similarly promising situation? He has four months to prove to NFL teams that he's more than a talented player who's not worth the trouble.
I think a good fit for him would be Green Bay. Charles Woodson still has a few years left, but it's a good place to straighten your act out, because if you haven't notice, you never hear about problem players on the Packers compared to the other teams in the NFC North.
Raiders! He can goin Pryor and have a good time at the owners expense.
Pete Carroll could find a use for him I'm sure
Just another drug addict. he will fit into the NFL perfectly.
Just what the NFL needs, another drug head... I wonder if the NFL will ever wake up and stop those with criminal records from being in the NFL.
Hopefully for him he does a better job of preparing for the NFL combine than Maurice Clarett
Maybe he'll be drafted by Seattle or Denver since they both seem to be okay with legalizing MJ.
LOL @ someone smoking MJ as having a drug problem. Most NFL athletes smoke it. You can't OD on it and it's healthier than drinking, tobacco, and prescription drugs. Neanderthal thinking. He'll be drafted.
My first thought was "What is this man thinking?" He could not stay away from drugs in college, what would happen if he did get drafted and made the money that is possible to make in the NFL? In my opinion, and no one has asked but that is what makes America great I am going to give it anyway, he needs to get back in school and if he has any eligibility left prove himself on the field there once again after all it takes more than an over inflated ego and a very stupid nickname to be a good NFL player. Then my next thought was "Forget football." Get back in rehab get that part of your life back in order then worry about football. Just one mans opinion.
Take the dubious NFL-skillset and also throw in that he has repeatedly demonstrated Kenny Britt levels of personal life stupidity (with no indication of an end to it in sight), and I'm sorry, but I just can't see any team willing to take much of a risk on Mathieu. Late, late round draft pick, at best. And it wouldn't shock me if he goes undrafted.
Drafted by the LPL...Louisiana Penal League
I hope he has gotten his life together as a player he may be a late round draft pick and he could be a steal for either a good team or one that needs alot of help. I also hope they have a structure to help this young man with his demons
This is insane! Honey Boo Boo is way too young and too little to be playing professional football.
I hope my team doesn't touch this clown but a desperate coaching staff might. He's tiny but that can work in dime coverage against an opposing team's 3rd and 4th WRs who also might be smaller. The salary structure also makes it so teams risk a lot less and poor drafts don't financially cripple a team...speaking of which: JaMarcus says hello.
Buyer beware on drafting Tyrann! Yes, he does have a potential for adding an immediate impact for a team but so did Pacman Jones. This guy reminds me of a Pacman. NFL needs to start holding players accountable for their actions. If they are caught doing drugs, selling drugs, raping women, abusing women, etc...they need to be booted out of the NFL. This would happen in Corporate America. I'm tired of this poor me and give the guy a 2nd chance. Maybe you should use common sense before doing something stupid! What a freaking joke this has become with professional sports!
It's going to be a very difficult road to the NFL for Tyrann. Too small, too many red flags and being away from the game for nearly 2 years if he got invited as a college free agent to an NFL team are working against him. Maybe he should look into the CFL first and get himself re-established.
I hope everyone who refers to this Nygger as "Honey badger" gets colon cancer and dies a horrible death
Just think of all the drugs and trouble he will do if he get an NFL contract
Why waist a pick on this drugged out failure.
Welcome to Oakland!
@RPF Anything done in excess represents a problem. Mathieu is a pothead with proven self-control issues. That's a problem. You're clueless if you truly don't see that. "Neanderthal thinking" indeed.
Btw, for the record, I think marijuana should be legal. But that doesn't change the fact that it is a vice, like drinking, and people that get addicted to it become just about worthless.
@mikelynncrowe He is thinking, "Man an NFL paycheck will allow me to buy a ton of pot".
@knorman1969 "help this young man with his demons" REALLY? So his problems are demons, and not a total lack of personal responsibility and accountability...?!!
And too high......
The NFL is filled with SEC-product *studs* right now, so I don't know what this "another bust" business is about.
You want a conference that regularly produces busts, look to the Big Ten and Big East's products lately.
you're citing Corporate America as a pillar of moral values? The NFL is the embodiment of corporate america! Greed over character...why do they tolerate all this bullshit? $$$$$
@B8 Maurice Clarett revisited.
At least 1 kind soul here still believes corporate america has moral courage...LIKE
He should go back and play one more year in college and show that he can keep himself straight and improve his stock. That is what he originally stated he was going to do. This is a horrible decision by him. It shows that he still lacks commitment and integrity.
@DaveDaniels He is only going to say shyt like that in private.....coward
are you late for the rally you are a piece
Thank you Charles Benedict Davenport, founder of eugenics for crashing this conversation into a KKK rally. The adults are talking...beat it
@DaveDaniels racist idiot
I'm just impressed you spelled the word failure correctly. Seeing that word a lot lately?
@Mike72 Yeah, cuz no pot smoker ever found success in this world. Oh, and waist? Well done.
@T.J.Young Don't hate
@T.J.Young I'd say you were right if Al Davis was still alive. Hopefully, the new management team has more sense.
Or parental responsibilities.
@Dave40 @knorman1969 Yes demons do exist and can influence decision making. First Peter 5:6-9, "Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time: 7Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you. 8Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9Whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world."
@Orange Crush - Going to an FCS school and dominating there while getting his head on straight again is the the right move. The problem is getting Tyrann to see it your way. This is a man who thinks he's done nothing wrong. Somebody really needs to have a talk with him and tell him to get over himself.
@Orange Crush I totally agree. If you said you were going to get clean and return to football then show everyone you got the footballs to do so, then go to the NFL. Blowing off the recovery and ditching school is a huge flag that can only signal trouble down the road.
@Flatsguide @knorman1969 Exactly!
When I said structure, I was talking about the organazation that drafts him when you look at past players in nfl such as Ryan Leaf, Matt Jones and current players like Dez Bryant the need some structure but that is not a replacement for personal responsibility. I don't get into the saving the soul thing, not really sure how that works
@Bill30 @knorman1969 Great. Another religious nutcase!
lol? Where exactly do you see evidence of 'hurt feelings' in that comment up there? I was obviously just correcting someone who evidently isn't very informed about current trends in the NFL. I couldn't care less about collegiate conference rivalries, I only care about which rookies should be paid more attention to in fantasy football. And lately, that's SEC products.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/environmen...P=NECNETTXT766Arctic may be ice-free within 30 years
Data showing dramatic sea ice melt suggests warming at the north pole is speeding up
John Vidal, environment editor
guardian.co.uk, Monday 11 July 2011 16.42 BST
Sea ice in the Arctic is melting at a record pace this year, suggesting warming at the north pole is speeding up and a largely ice-free Arctic can be expected in summer months within 30 years.
The area of the Arctic ocean at least 15% covered in ice is this week about 8.5m sq kilometres lower than the previous record low set in 2007 according to satellite monitoring by the US National Snow and Ice Data Centre (NSIDC) in Boulder, Colorado. In addition, new data from the University of Washington Polar Science Centre, shows that the thickness of Arctic ice this year is also the lowest on record.
In the past 10 days, the Arctic ocean has been losing as much as 150,000 square kilometres of sea a day, said Mark Serreze, director of the NSIDC.

I burned an old dvd into cs4 which is an interview. The subject's voices are fine, however there is static in the background. Is there something I can do to silence this static?
Background noise, from many sources, can be problematic, though with some work, some background noise can be eliminated, or at least diminished. Everything depends on the frequencies of the noise vs the frequencies of the Audio, that you wish to keep. This ARTICLE gives some tips, and they might be helpful. Success depends so much on what you have, and what you need.
Good luck, and hope that some of those tips are helpful.
Sometimes a very low level of music background can mask some of the noise.
I have used that on occassion, and it CAN be very effective.
Good tip,
I read the article and I think I will try and add some soft music. It's not a professional video, it was just of friends of mine. Again, thank you for all your advice Bill.

I am not one who relies on other researchers to validate work I have done on my family tree. In the age of social media, however, you sometimes can't help giving a peak to what others say about your ancestor. Not to mention, collaboration is a good thing. Anyway, 99% (I use this percentage loosely; it's not likely I've seen all that is available) of what other researchers have posted online about my Frederick Yount is that he was married once (to my 4th great grandmother Polly Mayfield) and died in 1850 at Benton County, Missouri.
I debated on whether or not to add this viewpoint, and please note my opinion is not intended to offend anyone. It is, however, my opinion that of all the posters of information about my Frederick Yount that I browsed, it is likely only a handful are original thinkers. There are far more people out there that copy and paste or click and claim their family history. If you are a new researcher, I would take that as a "buyer beware" statement.
Anyway, the original point of my post is this: I challenge it all.
The first bit of information I have suggesting my 4th great grandfather was alive after 1850 is a land record. Ancestry's "U.S. General Land Office Records, 1796-1907" lists five entries resulting from a search of Frederick Yount. I believe the first four are about my great grandfather. The entries show all the land was located in Bollinger County, Missouri. This is inconsistent with the date of the very first entry, however. Bollinger County was not formed until 1851, and the first entry is for 14 November 1837. If you view the image, however, you will see the document pertains to Frederick Yount "of Cape Girardeau County." This makes much more sense. That time, Frederick purchased forty acres. The next two entries are dated 10 August 1841 and 1 January 1850. Both say he was from Cape Girardeau County, and he purchased forty acres each time.
Then comes the final entry. It is dated 3 January 1856. This time Frederick was "of Bollinger County," and he purchased 320 acres. All of the logistical information about the land, which I admit I do not understand, fits with each entry. All are from the 5th PM Meridian, Township 32-North, Range 9-East, and Section 20. The final entry adds sections 21 and 29. This fits nicely since Bollinger County was created from Cape Girardeau County. Frederick probably did not move from one county to the other. The county in which he lived changed names. Finally, it may seem like a large jump in the amount purchased. I don't think it is a stretch, though, since census records show Frederick's real estate value was always increasing.
|(Click to View)
Census records taken 9 July 1860 for Bollinger County, Missouri show Frederick Yount with wife Elisabeth. Some of the children listed are from Frederick and Polly's marriage. I contend the rest belong to Elizabeth and her first husband.
This last one is the most tenuous. In the 1870 census for Bollinger county, Missouri is a listing for Frederick Yount, born about 1816 in Missouri. The birth year is four off of what I believe to be true, and I cannot positively account for the other individuals listed. Nonetheless, I still think this might be my 4th great grandfather. The real estate and personal values have gone up significantly, but that could mean the 320+ acres he acquired not long before the 1860 census have begun to consistently bear fruit.
I would like to check census records for Elizabeth and her first husband to compare the names of individuals listed in the 1860 and 1870 census records, but I cannot seem to get the correct surname spelling. Is it Kneringer? Knerringer? Kremminger? Something totally different? UGH!
Lastly, I submit to you that Frederick did not die in Benton County, Missouri. I don't have sound findings to support this, it's just a hunch. Frederick spent all of his time in southeast Missouri. This small clip of a Missouri county map shows the counties in which he inhabited and those surrounding him. Benton County, Missouri is located in the west central portion of the state. Now I have found death locations for other ancestors that have shocked me, so I'm not saying it's impossible. Maybe this tidbit will prove to be true, but I'm not buying it just yet.
OK. I've laid out why I think Frederick Yount was alive and farming after the year 1850. Is there no one that agrees with me?
